Just found out im pregnant, probably 4-5 weeks. Im so scared of doing something wrong in these early weeks since its my first time. Can the experienced mommas pls tell me what all to avoid?
First month main no self medication, no smoking or alcohol, no heavy lifting, no x-rays without telling its pregnancy. Start folic acid if u havent. And dont skip meals even if u feel queasy. Simple basics, dont overthink the rest.
Dont take stress, that is the first thing. Avoid lifting heavy buckets n bending too much. Eat on time, take folic acid, n if anything feels wrong go to lady doctor. Take care behen.
Be gentle with urself this month. I avoid any medicine without asking doctor, avoid very strenuous workouts, n if u see any bleeding or strong cramps go straight to gynac. After my loss I learned to not take things lightly, but also not to panic constantly.
Beta avoid papaya n pineapple in large amount, our elders always said so, take rest. But for any tablet or pain always ask the doctor, dont take dadi-nani medicine blindly. Eat fresh home food n stay calm.
Practically, dont push urself with long travel or skipping sleep for work. I cut down late nights early on. Avoid raw/undercooked stuff in office canteen too. Keep folic acid in ur bag so u dont forget.
Dont suddenly start intense gym or hot yoga now. I switched to gentle walks only after my doctor okayed it. First month listen to ur body, no jumping or heavy core work.
